what's MACARON?
MACARON is a Solana-based DeFi protocol offering innovative token acquisition mechanisms including auction-based mining, block-based mining, and volatility farming. Users participate in auctions or block mining to earn $MACARON, create volatility farming pods for any token to capture yield from price fluctuations (with pod creators earning revenue share), and anticipate features like a preauction launchpad. Liquidity for $MACARON is provided and locked on Meteora, emphasizing community building through developer incentives for tools like arbitrage bots.
